In October of 2016, the Cardiology division at MGH celebrated a major milestone – marking 100 years of caring for the heart. Established in 1916 by Paul Dudley White, MD, the division was the first cardiac care unit in the country. White went on to become one of the premier experts in his field, bringing the first EKG to the United States, helping to found organizations like the American Heart Association, and establishing some of the very first cardiac rehab programs. Today, current and former Cardiology fellows from the MGH make up the Paul Dudley White Society and continue to innovate in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of heart disease. Many of them are featured here in this video, remarking on White’s incredible legacy and looking ahead to the next century of developments in heart health.
